The Carey School Mission
Specializing in elementary education, The Carey School inspires curious, confident, and joyful learners and celebrates childhood in an inclusive, diverse community that nurtures kindness, respect, and personal responsibility.
Why Carey?
At The Carey School, we believe that where you are educated first, matters most. We've been educating elementary students since 1928, and we know how to do it right.
Our unique eight-year learning path blends the best of traditional methods with the most innovative ideas to achieve a just-right, developmentally appropriate balance for all ages and stages. Our students graduate with confidence, well‐prepared for the next school and beyond.
Learning Path
Over the eight years a student is at Carey, we focus on building a strong academic foundation and instilling a love of learning in our students. We balance curriculum and instruction with play, exploration, and opportunities for experiential learning.
Our students develop a deep appreciation for the joys of learning as they build skills as readers, writers, mathematicians, scientists, artists, engineers, athletes and citizens of the world, all through the lens of appreciating our similarities and differences, as well as the diverse lived experiences and perspectives of people.
You Belong
Students. Faculty. Staff. Families. We’re all in this together, and that's the magic of Carey. Just as our students are happiest when they are authentically engaged, our community shines when we come together to celebrate a tradition, dive into a parent education topic, honor a community member, or engage in service. We all join in creating a vibrant, supportive community that helps everyone reach their fullest potential.
